Weathered Wood with an Eco Story
About Windswept
Function and Design We value your interest and appreciate you taking the time to discover the hidden world of Windswept aged wood products.
The vast array of product applications truly represent the ideal compliment for design and ecologically minded projects with increased momentum toward contemporarycosmopolitan appeal. Windswept adds style, sophistication and practicality to what designers have long called for ~ a reclaimed appearance with the stability and structural integrity of new wood, backed by industry associations at nearly half the investment.
Our resilient finishes replicate reclaimed materials for both interior and exterior applications. All wood fiber is derived from “standing dead” trees out of Rocky Mountain region, thus lending an idyllic environmental compliment and eco-story to boot. This parlays into an effortless presentation process that will enhance any scope project with product performance and cost effectiveness.
Crafting distinctive exterior and interior solution that balances form with function is more challenging than ever. Ensuring relevance across the commercial and residential platforms demands outside-the-box thinking, and a product to back it up.
Windswept Weathered Wood is a new-generation manufacturing process that will placate any project scope while yielding success with premium product and service capabilities, ultimately leading to customer satisfaction and a project rewarded with the integrity it deserves.
Our innovative style and continued focus to customer satisfaction continues to scale upward congruent to the inimitable culture of specialty wood providers as well as the A&D, Hospitality and Retail Design communities.

Environmental Benefits When trees decay or burn, they release all the carbon stored in their fiber; this process is considered ‘carbon-neutral’, for they release the equivalent of what carbon is stored.
The carbon can be contained, or sequestered, when the tree is used as a wood product,
or utilized to create electricity, heat and fuels. This could be considered ‘carbon-negative’, utilization of trees for lumber and biomass can result in removing carbon from the environment.
Some studies suggest that our North American forests are at a ‘tipping point’ of off-putting more carbon than they absorb. Unfortunately, lack of management and an ill-fated practice of fire suppression for many years has resulted in weak, over-crowded, and unhealthy forests. We do not need to raze our forests lands, for the amount of timber that needs to come out (amidst re-planting efforts), just to protect our water, power lines, urban and recreation areas and other infrastructure is enormous. The question remains: “What do we do with all these dead trees?” Simply put, we need to utilize a significant amount of these dead trees; this can prevent carbon release through sequestration and can allow more living trees to cleanse our air.
Healthy forests, maintained through the natural process of fire, when combined with sustainable forestry and timber utilization both for lumber and biomass applications can create a ‘carbon-negative’ effect. These and many other benefits, such as water cleansing and a healthy wildlife bio-diversity, leads many to believe that a ‘use more wood, grow more trees’ approach is key to reducing and sequestering carbon, and thereby creating a more sustainable world.
The fantastic technologies of wind, water and solar energies do not absorb or reduce carbon, nor do they produce carbon, so once you discount the carbon footprint to manufacture the components, ship, install, and maintain the system, they are considered ‘carbon neutral’.

Siding Installation Information
Printable
Selection, Installation, Finishing Moisture Content As wood loses or gains moisture, it will shrink or swell until it reaches equilibrium with the level of moisture in the air of its immediate surroundings. Because of its cell structure, wood shrinks primarily in thickness and width and very little in length. Wood siding is no exception. It will shrink and swell regardless of pattern or material quality. Problems can occur after installation if the siding shrinks or swells unevenly or very rapidly, particularly if it has been improperly nailed and its natural movement has been restricted. However, problems such as twist, cup, warp, splits and checks can be minimized. To avoid potential problems and to minimize dimensional change after installation, the moisture content of the siding should match the local climate as closely as possible at the time of installation. For instance, if the climate in a particular region causes wood to maintain 9% to 14% moisture content, then the moisture content of the siding should be within that range when installed.
Siding Storage All siding may pick up or lose moisture in transit or storage so it is important to allow it to acclimate with the surrounding air of its final site prior to installation. Stack the siding on evenly spaced, vertically aligned stickers (spacers between the layers) in an area where there will be good air flow through the stack. This should be done in an open garage or other area that is protected from the elements. If stacked over concrete, use 2x4s or 2x6s on edge to elevate the first course of siding at least 3.5 inches above the surface of the concrete. If the stack is over wet ground or wet concrete, lay down a vapor barrier so the wood doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pick up moisture from beneath the stack.

Nail Penetration and Spacing Recommended penetration into studs or blocking, or into a combination of wood sheathing and these members, is 1.5”. Penetration is 1.25” with ring shank nails. Vertical Siding, when applied over wood-based sheathing, should be nailed to horizontal blocking or other wood framing members not exceeding 36” on center when face-nailed, or 32” on center when blind-nailed. Vertical Siding, when installed without sheathing, should be nailed to wood framing or blocking members at 24” on center. Some building codes require 24” on center with or without sheathing; check your local code to verify requirements. Cut bevel (scarf) joints for vertical installations. Horizontal and diagonal siding should be nailed to studs at 24” on center maximum when applied over wood-based, solid sheathing and 16” on center maximum when applied without move, that is to shrink and swell, as well as to adequately hold the siding in place. As a general rule, each piece of siding is nailed independently of its neighboring pieces. Do not nail through two overlapping pieces of siding with the same nail as this practice will restrict the natural movement of the siding and may cause unnecessary problems. Nail joints into the studs or blocking members. Drive nails carefully. Hand nailing is preferred over pneumatic nailing because there is less control of placement and driving force with pneumatic nailers. Nails should be snug, but not over driven. Nails that are over driven can distort the wood and may cause excessive splitting. Over driven nails also provide an avenue for moisture to collect and move through the piece. Pre drilling near the ends will help reduce any splitting that can occur with thinner patterns. For additional information regarding pneumatic nailing, contact the International Staple, Nail and Tool Association at www.isanta.org .
